More than the certificate title

Diploma translation for degrees and academic records

The word “diploma” can describe different qualifications depending on the education system. The translation should preserve the qualification title shown on the source rather than replace it with an assumed local equivalent.

Where the diploma is accompanied by a transcript, mark sheet or supplement, translating the set together helps maintain consistent terminology and presentation.

  • School-leaving and high-school diplomas
  • Bachelor’s, Master’s and doctoral degree certificates
  • Postgraduate and professional diplomas
  • Vocational and training qualifications
  • Course-completion and award certificates

Why the diploma and transcript should be translated together

The diploma confirms the award. The transcript supplies the detailed academic record behind it. Translating both together helps prevent different English versions of the same course, qualification or institution name.

This is especially useful when the receiving organisation is comparing the certificate title with the subjects, credits and grades shown in the transcript.

01 / QUALIFICATION

Matching Award Titles

The qualification name remains consistent across the diploma, transcript, supplement and award letter.

02 / INSTITUTION

Consistent Institution Names

University, faculty, department and campus names use the same rendering throughout the document set.

03 / MODULES

Stable Course Terminology

Repeated modules, disciplines and programme terminology are translated consistently.

04 / DATES

Aligned Study Information

Study periods, graduation dates and award dates are checked across the complete academic pack.

Faithful academic information

Grades are translated, not academically converted

The translation represents the grades, marks, credits, classifications and GPA values shown on the original record. It does not independently decide their equivalent in another country’s education system.

Where the source includes a grading scale or explanatory note, that information can be translated so the evaluator has the context supplied by the issuing institution.

Translation is different from credential evaluation

A translation renders the document into the required language. An equivalency decision is made separately by the university, employer, regulator or evaluation body.

01

Grade Labels

Pass, distinction, honours and classification wording is translated in its source-document context.

02

Numeric Values

Marks, percentages, GPAs and credit values remain faithful to the original record.

03

Tables and Columns

Structured transcript layouts are reproduced clearly so rows and headings remain easy to compare.

04

Abbreviations

Academic abbreviations are handled carefully and expanded only when the meaning can be supported.

Simple four-step process

From academic-document upload to certified delivery

The scope, certification route, fixed price and achievable turnaround are confirmed before translation begins.

  1. Upload the Documents

    Send clear scans, PDFs or well-lit photographs of every required diploma, transcript and supporting page.

  2. Confirm the Requirement

    Provide the language, receiving organisation, intended use, certification wording and exact deadline.

  3. Translation and Review

    Qualifications, grades, modules, dates, stamps, seals and formatting are translated and checked.

  4. Receive the Certified Files

    The translation and signed certification are delivered as a professional PDF, with printed copies where requested.

Details official reviewers compare

Quality checks for diploma and transcript translations

Academic records contain linked names, dates, classifications, tables and official markings. Each element needs to remain clear and consistent across the completed set.

01 / IDENTITY

02 / AWARD

Qualification Titles

The award is translated consistently without silently replacing it with an assumed foreign equivalent.

03 / RESULTS

Grades and Credits

Numbers, symbols, grade labels, classifications and credit values are checked carefully against the source.

04 / DATES

Study and Award Dates

Enrolment periods, examination dates and graduation dates are reviewed across connected pages.

05 / MARKINGS

Modules, marks, credits and multi-column transcript layouts can require additional formatting.

04

Readability

Faded seals, handwriting, low-resolution scans or cropped text may require further review.

Diploma translation questions

Frequently asked questions

Send the institution’s instructions with the academic documents when you are uncertain about the required certification, format or supporting records.

Ask About Your Academic Documents

Requirements differ between organisations

The university, evaluator, employer, regulator or immigration authority decides which documents and certification route it will accept.

What is a certified diploma translation?

It is a complete translation of the diploma supplied with a signed certification statement confirming that the translation is accurate and complete.

Do you translate diplomas and transcripts together?

Yes. Translating them as one document set helps keep qualification titles, institution names, modules, grades, dates and terminology consistent.

Can you translate degree certificates and mark sheets?

Yes. The service covers degree certificates, diplomas, mark sheets, transcripts, diploma supplements, grading explanations and award letters.

Will you convert my grades or GPA?

No academic-equivalency decision is made as part of the translation. Grades, GPAs, marks and credits are translated as displayed, together with any grading explanation provided by the institution.

Will the transcript layout be preserved?

Tables, rows, columns, headings and section order are reproduced clearly where practical so the translated record can be compared with the original.

Are stamps, seals and handwritten notes included?

Readable wording within institutional stamps, seals, annotations and handwritten entries is translated or identified appropriately.

Can I send a clear photograph instead of a scan?

Yes. A clear, well-lit photograph can be reviewed when all page edges, text, signatures, stamps and reverse sides are visible without blur or glare.

How fast can a diploma translation be completed?

Urgent options are available for eligible documents. The achievable time depends on the language pair, number of pages, formatting complexity, readability, certification route and translator availability.

Will a university or evaluator accept the translation?

Requirements vary. Supply the receiving organisation’s instructions so the translation can be prepared using the requested certification and document format. The final acceptance decision remains with that organisation.

Can you provide a notarized, sworn or apostille-related service?

Yes, where required. Provide the destination country, receiving organisation and its instructions so the appropriate certified, sworn, notarized or authentication route can be reviewed.

What file format will I receive?

The completed certified translation and Certificate of Accuracy are delivered as a professional PDF. Printed copies can be arranged where the recipient requires physical documents.

How much do diploma and transcript translation services cost?

Pricing depends on the language pair, page count, word volume, transcript formatting, readability, certification route and requested turnaround.
